Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Chop vegetables of choice. Roughly chop fresh garlic. Place chopped veggies on a roasting pan covered with parchment or a silicone mat. Coat vegetables with olive, avocado or grape seed oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste and fresh or dried herbs of choice.
- Roast vegetables for 25-35 minutes, tossing at least once while roasting.
- While vegetables roast, cook 2 cups of dried quinoa or more, according to number of desired servings. Follow directions on package. Use vegetable broth to replace water for a more flavorful outcome.
- As veggies and quinoa cook, whisk tahini, water, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt and sugar, if using in a small bowl until well combined.
- When quinoa is cooked, remove from heat and fluff with a fork. Place quinoa into serving bowls. Drizzle half of the tahini dressing over quinoa. Add salt and pepper, as desired.
- Top quinoa with roasted vegetables and drizzle vegetables with the remaining tahini dressing. Top with herbs.
Notes
- To save time, use pre-chopped vegetables, as available
